✦ Synopsis

The capability of large, data-intensive expert systems is determined not only by the cleverness and expertise of their knowledge manipulation algorithms and methods but also by the fundamental speeds of the computer systems upon which they are implemented. To date, logical inferences per second (LIPS) is used as the "power metric" of the knowledge processing capacity of an expert system implementation. We show why this simplistic metric is misleading. We relate the power metrics for conventional computer systems to LIPS and demonstrate wide discrepancies. We review the 'power' of today's largest conventional mainframes, such as the IBM 3090/400 and the Cray Research Cray-2 and forecast the expected power of mainframes and specialized processors in the coming decade.
